1930 Bobby Jones Signed Photographic Montage
<B>1930 Bobby Jones Signed Photographic Montage.</B></I> Recognizing the striking similarity between his own photo and the one Heritage auctioned in October 2006 for a chart-topping $13,145, the consignor of this fine signed image wisely sought our services for its sale. The central image of this impressive montage measures a regally proportioned 10x13", and pictures the Golden Age golf god with Jones biographer and noted sports columnist O.B. Keeler. Jones pens a wonderful inscription, reading "To Major Cohen, The noblest of them all, and, I am happy to say, a most valued friend, Bob Jones." The black fountain pen ink retains a splendid 9/10 boldness. Slightly lighter, and positioned just below, is Keeler's simple "With everything, O.B. Keeler." The photo itself, boasting the gleaming treasures of Jones' links dominance, remains entirely free of flaws. Encircling the central signed image are seven second-generation photographic images recounting Jones' triumphant return to the United States after winning golf's illustrious Grand Slam. A reproduced article detailing the homecoming is at bottom center, penned by none other than Keeler himself. The final dimensions of this matted and framed piece extend to 32x41". <I>LOA from PSA/DNA.
